Abstract

Specifying and programming with the help of agent systems is gaining more and more interest, especially in the field to distributed and reactive systems. In this paper, we propose a formal model of agent systems based on graph transformation. It is quite natural to visualize systems, especially system states, by means of graphs. Hence, it is also appropriate to specify those systems using graphs. Accordingly, changes from one state into another can be modeled by graph transformation.
